I got the following error:

Error: JavaFX detected no fonts! Please refer to release notes for proper font configuration
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError
    at uk.co.screamingfrog.seospider.SeoSpider.main(SourceFile:2128)
...

Installing ttf-dejavu (as described here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57594313/javafx-cannot-find-fonts-on-gnome) fixed it for me. Could you add that as dependency?

@matth, thank you so much for helping. This is now resolved on my end. Cheers!

Hi lakeslit. I tried out that option and the UI seems less responsive to me with it so I don't think we want to include it for everyone. It basically disables hardware acceleration by turning that on.

You should have a file at $HOME/.screamingfrogseospider which comes default with the -Xmx2g option in it. This file can be used to add any other options you want to pass to screaming frog at start so you can update it to include -Dprism.order=sw so it looks like -Xmx2g -Dprism.order=sw

This should be a good option so you can still use the same launcher included in the package but pass the flags needed for it to run on your system.

When launching the program I am getting really strange flashing black screen. I was able to resolve it by creating this bash script:

#!/bin/bash cd /usr/share/screamingfrogseospider java -Dprism.order=sw -jar ScreamingFrogSEOSpider.jar

Is there anyway to update the package to include this? Here is an official link from ScreamingFrog on this (be warned it's written for Windows): https://www.screamingfrog.co.uk/seo-spider/faq/#why-do-i-get-a-blank-screen (under interface issues)

@matth thank you. i didn't give you much to work on and you got it figured out promptly. i appreciate you as a maintainer.

Nevermind, I just saw that openjdk was just recently updated to jdk20. I pushed an update to this package which now supports jdk20 as well.

@duhbLow7 what do you have installed for a java-runtime-openjdk package?

When I try to run screamingfrogseospider I get this error:

Could not find java\n

Starting with 18.2 I switched this back to using Arch's version of openjdk instead of the embedded version in the .deb

This has been working fine for me, but if anyone has issues with that, leave a comment and we can look into a solution to use the embedded jre (probably a separate package with that)

@matth A guy from the official EOS forum helped me. So for EndeavourOS you need to edit os-release file and add double quotes to PRETTY_NAME value:

sudoedit /usr/lib/os-release

....

PRETTY_NAME="EndeavourOS"
